This page is redundant with the pokerbots page.-- Toms2866 14:19, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
I'm 95% sure that the mention of 'Combinatorial Game Theory' is incorrect. Probably what was meant was standard game theory (ie Von Neumann's stuff). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.229.247.11 ( talk) 14:34, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
I agree, I think it's *not* "combinatorial game theory" but just plain "game theory". I changed it. 70.102.136.132 ( talk) 23:20, 3 July 2008 (UTC)
Is poker computationally intractable? If so, need a cite. Smyjpmu 00:27, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
A major part of the skill of live poker games, however, is guessing at the strength of a player's hand by identifying tells made by other players, while concealing one's own. As a computer would not make any physical tells, playing against a computer would necessitate reading tells only from the bets placed; equally, the computer cannot read human tells.
I removed this because it just isn't true. Computers are not at all incapable of identifying tells. In fact, computer systems are currently being developed to detect lying by identifying facial movements. As far as I know this has never been adapted to poker, but not because it'd be impossible.

I removed that section as it's utter crap. If poker were as easy as that I'd be a 25/50 regular by now; hand samples on which decisions are based in online poker are so utterly statistically insignificant that you have to have some basic strategy in most turn/river situations as it'll take several hundred hands to gain enough reads on your opponents thru sheer numbers (and obv he gets to extract info from showdowns while you only analyze inaccurate numbers). And that's for heads up play only, a "mimicking" strategy would be far more complicated at 6max or full ring play and the mirroring results of most bot programmers probably wouldn't even be able to beat other players, let alone rake —Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.136.201.234 ( talk) 17:57, 29 January 2011 (UTC)

I removed what this section said about state space because it was definitely wrong, but someone that knows something about poker AI should rewrite this section. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sadichen ( talk • contribs) 06:30, 13 March 2016 (UTC)
The IP address that keeps adding the citations from PokerNews might misunderstanding why these aren't legit citations. The main reason is that the first page is just a page shilling for GGPoker. Advertisements aren't reliable sources. The second page is arguably better, but the actual information is still limited to a single site, GGPoker, and the claims made are about "most, if not all," poker sites. It would be better to discuss this here than to continue to edit war. Rray ( talk) 03:04, 14 February 2023 (UTC)
